She possessed an aroma like an apple.
, what a film.
Please avoid reading up any summary for this film and instead go in dazzle in the event that you can. In any case, I should warn you that this film is a hard pill to swallow, as far as its topic. Without ruining anything, the film is about anguish and what that can mean for an individual and a relationship. It very well might be troubling for a few and may leave you feeling blue, yet it's so incredible you will not fail to remember it. Worth seeing only for the coordinating, acting, and story.
I wasn't prepared for it and I figure you shouldn't be as well.
The film starts with an unpleasant and devastating 30-minute-long scene that consummately establishes up the pace for the film. It's rare for me to say "goodness sh*t!" out load while watching a film. Individuals have said that the film rapidly deflates after that, yet I don't agree. After something as immense as that opening, the rest takes a much more slow pace that viably allows the audience to examine intently on the characters during the most noticeably awful time of their lives.
Vanessa Kirby conveys a performance that I would portray as haunting. Out of all the performances I've seen from her (up until now), this is by a long shot her best, as this film really showcases her range as an actor.
She really sank her teeth into the job and all of feeling she passed on all through the film, noisy or calm, was staggeringly believable. From her part as Princess Margaret in the hit TV show 'The Crown' and now this film, I can safely say I'm a fan of Vanessa Kirby.
The remainder of the supporting cast were all equally marvelous. Shia LaBeouf, in spite of being a controversial figure as of late, also conveys a fantastic performance. It was more grounded and less garish than his different jobs. Ellen Burstyn is an amazing actor, and this film helps us to remember that.
The scenes among her and Kirby were the features of the film. One scene helped to remember Burstyn's heart-breaking discourse from 'Memorial for a Dream'. Just from her facial articulations alone, the sadness and the concern, have implanted itself into my head.
The cinematography from Benjamin Loeb is really all around shot and the camera work is almost similar to a character itself. There are a lot of long takes all through the film as the camera would once in a while stream between or around the characters, which made the scenes feel personal and real.
My lone issue with the was the score from Howard Shore as I felt it was lacking in certain scenes. At times I didn't think music was really required for certain scenes. Not a horrendous score using any and all means, but rather exceptionally disappointing and nothing special. And that's really it for issues.
Overall rating: 'Pieces of a Woman' is a beautiful character-driven story that emotionally destroyed me. A hard film to suggest for clear reasons. It's a challenging film that demands your patience as the story steadily moves along the emotional unrest. It doesn't keep anything down with regards to introducing the fair reality of its topic, however I believe that's what made it so amazing for me. Hard to watch, yet I accept that's the point
